Roles in Incident Control
Attending and Non-Attending Crews
Let's explore the roles of attending and non-attending crews in incident control. As the first ambulance paramedic on scene, my initial responsibility is to compile the **METHANE report** after parking. Shortly after my arrival, Justin, the incident commander, will join to take command.
Justin's primary role is to assume **control of the incident** from me, enabling me to continue patient care. He manages **information flow** to and from the scene.
Adrian, in the control room, operates **with limited information**, relying on reports from me, Justin, or directly from the scene. His task is to **synthesize and manage** potentially conflicting information to effectively coordinate the response.
Clear delineation of roles ensures efficient incident management.
